Light-Paws Companion

Use the app: lightpaws.app — free, no login, works on any phone.

A free companion app and aura tracker for the Light-Paws, Emperor's Voice Commander (EDH) deck in Magic: The Gathering. Runs as an installable web app (PWA) on your phone — home-screen icon, full-screen, works offline for the Board / Play / Deck tabs. State is saved between opens.

Run it locally (to test / develop)

Requires Node.js 18+.

npm install
npm run dev

Then open the printed URL (e.g. http://localhost:5173) on your computer, or on your phone if it's on the same Wi-Fi (use the Network URL Vite prints).

Build for release

npm run build       # outputs the /dist folder
npm run preview     # serve /dist locally to check it

Put it on your phone (free, no app store)

1. Deploy the /dist folder to any static host:
   • Vercel / Netlify / Cloudflare Pages — drag-and-drop the dist folder, or connect a Git repo. All have free tiers. HTTPS is automatic (required for PWA).
2. Open the deployed URL in your phone's browser.
3. Install it:
   • iPhone (Safari): Share button -> "Add to Home Screen".
   • Android (Chrome): menu (⋮) -> "Install app" / "Add to Home screen".
4. Launch from the new icon — it opens full-screen like a native app.

Notes

• Card art, the hold-to-see-card-text popup, and the "All Auras" tab pull live from Scryfall's public API, so those need a connection. Board / Play / Deck work offline.
• Your deck selection, equipped auras, mana, and counts persist via localStorage.
• Import (Deck tab) matches names against the built-in library. Cards outside it are reported as unmatched (still searchable on All Auras). Auto-enriching any pasted list from Scryfall is the planned next step.

Where things live

• src/App.jsx — the entire app (data, scoring, all four tabs).
• vite.config.js — PWA manifest + service worker config.
• public/ — icons + favicon.
